Will Paulinho or Weverton play? Palmeiras absentees for final | OneFootball

Palmeiras has three absences for the Libertadores final against Flamengo in Lima, Peru

Coach Abel Ferreira is keeping Palmeiras’ lineup a secret. However, the team has a trio of absences for the Libertadores final this Saturday (29), against Flamengo in Lima, Peru.

This is because Paulinho, Weverton, and Lucas Evangelista are injured, but they traveled with the club anyway. The midfielder underwent shin surgery in July, the goalkeeper fractured his hand, and the defensive midfielder tore the tendon in his right thigh.

What is Abel Ferreira’s likely lineup?

Therefore, without the trio, Palmeiras’ likely starting lineup is: Carlos Miguel, Khellven, Gustavo Gómez, Murilo, and Piquerez; Bruno Fuchs, Andreas Pereira, Allan, and Raphael Veiga; Flaco López and Vitor Roque.

How did Palmeiras reach the Libertadores final?
